Big news from Birmingham Magazine yesterday as they released their Best of Birmingham awards. Readers of the magazine vote on the categories. Here is how they tally the votes along with how many people voted…
“During the month of June, Birmingham magazine readers cast more than 16,000 votes for their favorite things in 99 categories. These are the top three vote getters in each category, with ties noted where appropriate.”
Magic City Brewfest was named as the best Food/Drink Festival in Birmingham beating out other worthy festivals, Break ‘n Bread and the Greek Food Festival. This is MCBF’s first win in the category after last year’s top three finish.
While winning that category is great Magic City Brewfest was a finalist for the big prize, Best Annual Event, finishing in the top three along with the Honda Indy Grand Prix and the SEC Baseball Tournament is something to be proud of.
Check out the complete list of finalists and winners here and I’m sure you’ll see some of Free the Hops’ very best friends on this list too.
Thanks to everyone who voted and let’s finish #1 in both categories next year!
